Name: Chi Bong-Chol Age: 8 Sex: Male Profession: Lower-class con artist Location: Outer islands Affiliations: Black market traders, scavengers, pirates. Disposition: Playful, curious, cunning.
Don’t let his innocent expression fool you—Chi Bong-Chol is a natural-born con artist. Raised by a scavenger-turned-pirate mother and a black market-trader father, Bong-Chol grew up learning how to pick locks and pockets, fabricate handwriting and paintings, and effortlessly blend into a crowd. Young as he is, Bong-Chol is cunning, quick, and shockingly ruthless for a child. He knows his way around an array of blades from daggers to shortswords, and is talented with a bow-and-arrow as well. He dreams of getting his hands on explosives or artillery—specifically the fabled Dragon’s Breath—but as a lower class citizen, that opportunity is likely never to arrive.
At eight years old, Bong-Chol isn’t particularly tall or tough, but he makes up for this in his speed and street smarts. He is short but quick, with dark hair and dark eyes, making him an easily-forgettable face whenever he is pulling a stunt on an innocent pickpocket victim. He is often dressed head-to-toe in dark, tattered poorman’s clothes, and often forgoes shoes in favor of just wrapping his feet in sturdy footwraps.
Living on the outer islands has taught him priceless survival skills that the children of the Inner Kingdom will never learn or experience in their cushy, protected lifestyles. However, just because he is the son of a pair of pirates doesn’t mean he isn’t still just a child. Outside of his training, Bong-Chol is just as enamored with nature and fantasy as the next kid his age, and he is always educating himself about the mythical creatures of Shinkami Dao. He finds animals, spirits, and gods all fascinating in their own manners, and often ventures into the wilderness on his own to seek out mythical creatures every now and again. Though he has been unsuccessful thus far, his parents still worry that he is going to get himself killed or cursed by some lowlife spirit on the outskirts of the Outer Kingdom.
